«Això és (i no és) allò» is a linguistics essay by Jesús Tuson Valls, published by Ara Llibres in paperback (112 pages, in Catalan).
The book analyzes metaphors as an everyday part of language: how we create them, what they are for, how they help us understand the world and relate to it, and how the media use them. It also reflects on their future in the face of new technologies and proposes accepting them as a treasure inseparable from our verbal capacity.
Non-fiction work in Catalan, first edition, published in Barcelona. The author was a professor of Linguistics at the University of Barcelona.
Aimed at readers interested in language, linguistic popularization and the everyday mechanisms of communication, especially in Catalan.
